Chapter 496: Souvenirs and Souvenirs

Because he was going back to Anxi tomorrow, Han Li didn't take Qi Ran to play today. Instead, he took her to some local farmers' markets, folk streets, shopping malls and supermarkets in the city to buy some local specialties from their hometown.

In today's fashionable terms, it's called a souvenir.

In fact, it is a small gift that you buy when you go to some places and give it to your relatives and friends.

And college students also have a tradition, every time they take a holiday, everyone will bring some specialties from their hometown back to share with everyone.

When he left before, Xie Bin and Zhang Yiyang specially told him to come back and bring good food.

In addition to them, Han Li also has some other friends, so he needs to bring a lot of souvenirs. And Qi Ran is the same, she also wants to bring some small gifts to her friends.

Because he is relatively familiar, Han Li is not much interested in visiting these places. On the contrary, it was Qi Ran, who felt relatively fresh when she visited these lost points for the first time, so she was very excited.

Basically, she walked in front and dragged Han Li around, as for what Han Li wanted to buy, it was also arranged by Qi Ran, and he only needed to pay.

In fact, it's simple to buy a gift or a souvenir for these friends. Zhang Yiyang and Xie Bin brought food with them, and as long as there was meat, it would definitely be very popular. Therefore, buy more beef jerky, wild boar jerky, small dried fish and the like.

As for Shen Chi and Wei Jun, they bought some small handicrafts or ornaments. For example, handicrafts carved from bamboo roots, ashtrays for stone grinding, incense burners and so on.

Although these things are not much money in a single piece, they are a lot of money together, and anyway, the total of two people in total cost four or five thousand.

The things were almost bought, and Han Li originally planned to take Qi Ran out to eat some local specialties. Although I have eaten a lot of food everywhere in the past few days, I still missed a lot of good things. Isn't this going to leave soon, so Han Li wants to take her to eat some delicacies that only locals will eat.

In fact, there are two types of local specialties in each place, the first is the one that is beautiful in appearance and is dedicated to tourists.

This kind of food has been improved and optimized specifically to entertain tourists. For example, the dishes are more beautiful and the taste is more in line with the public taste, which weakens the local food characteristics and makes it easier for tourists to eat habits.

Although tourists don't always want to eat some local specialties when they go to a place, this is not the case. Some delicacies with distinctive local characteristics are not to be liked by tourists, and often need to be improved before they can be accepted by tourists from other places.

The second type is the original local cuisine with distinctive local characteristics. This type of food has a special taste and is loved and sought after by the locals as well as some of the people who accept it.

But there are still some foreign tourists who can't accept it, just like foreign tourists can't accept the drunk shrimp in Jiangnan and the hairy eggs in Guangdong and Guangzhou.

But his mother called him and told them to go back to dinner early. Because they are leaving tomorrow, today my mother made a large table of dishes, which can be regarded as practice for them.

So he had to dispel his previous thoughts and return home with Qi Ran.

"Wow, that's what you can do." Qi Ran couldn't help but exclaim as she looked at the various dishes on the table.

At this time, my mother came out with a plate of dishes, and when she heard Qi Ran's words, she smiled and said, "In the past few days, you have been out to eat, and I haven't entertained you much at home." So today, I fried a few dishes, let's drink some together, it can be regarded as practicing for you, and you can also taste my craftsmanship. ”

"I said Mom, you're too partial, this is completely two specifications for me and Xiao Ran." Han Li complained to his mother.

Yang Fang glanced at Han Li and said, "It's not the same for you and Xiao Ran, it's not that you don't eat, what's the difference." Hurry up and clean up, and it's time to start eating. ”

"Uh, okay!" Han Li was full of black lines.

After cleaning up and washing their hands, everyone sat down and started eating. So many dishes really made Qi Ran's eyebrows smile, if she hadn't taken care of Han's father and Han's mother, she would have screamed in surprise.

Although my father doesn't usually drink much, he still made a good bottle of wine today and touched a few glasses with Han Li. And their mothers, Yang Fang and Qi Ran, also opened a bottle of red wine.

Because red wine has the effect of beautifying the face and calming the nerves, so the mother Yang Fang will also have a drink now. And Han Li, who has become rich, will also buy some for his mother from time to time, so he has saved a lot at home. Today, my mother was happy, so I specially opened a good bottle and touched two cups with Qi Ranxiao.

The meal lasted an hour or two before ending with everyone having their best time. Because her mother drank some wine, the cleaning process of the tableware kitchen after the meal naturally fell on Han Li's shoulders.

But seeing that everyone was so happy, Han Li took over and started to clean up. Although he rejected Qi Ran many times, she still cleaned up the kitchen with Han Li for a few pounds.

Seeing her so insistent, Han Li did not object. However, her mother tried to persuade her several times, but in the end she was not pulled out of the kitchen.

In fact, every time Han Li goes home, he will take the initiative to do some housework, which is also what he should do as a son. Especially now that they are getting busier and busier, the time to get back home is very limited.

Feeling ashamed, he would rush to make something when he got home, but each time he did very little. Because his mother loved him more, she insisted on not letting him do it a lot of the time.

After cleaning up, everyone began to sit down, drinking tea together, eating melon seeds and snacks, and chatting with parents. However, in the chat, there are more instructions to the two of them, and these instructions are full of care and love.

Although Qi Ran has only been here for a few days, in the eyes of her parents, they also regard her as their own child. This made Qi Ran very moved, and even his eyes began to turn red.

In the evening, the two began to pack their luggage, and the parents had already started to stuff the things they had secretly bought into their luggage.

"Auntie, this is too much, or so much." Qi Ran looked at the large number of things that Yang Fang had taken, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"It's not much, take it, it's a little bit of care from your aunt and your uncle." Yang Fang said and helped clean up.

In fact, every time Han Li left the house, his parents would stuff him with a lot of things. It's just that this time, the protagonist changed to Qi Ran, and Han Li could only stand aside.

Early the next morning, Han Li took the initiative to wake up. In order to be afraid of traffic jams on the road, they have to leave early today.

But when he got up, he found that it was his parents who got up earlier than him. At the moment, I am already busy in the kitchen, making them the dumplings they want to eat before getting on the bus.
